Saturday I was having my usual weekend breakfast with my older Christian friends (We are all in our 50s-60s-80s) when one of the most devoted of them mentioned how moving it was for him to witness a lady's healing right before his eyes. He said he was at an luncheon a few yrs ago sitting...

My eyes are swollen from crying off and on since 2:00 this afternoon when my dad came over to tell me the news that his issues are caused by ALS and not his back problems. I am absolutely devastated, he is 66 and has been having issues since summer time.. leg issues that have progressed to...

The skies have been grey most days for days on end. Nightly on the news we have seen entire states under a deluge of rain, flooding homes by the thousand. Our home in the hills is well above the swollen Murray River, but the relentless rain and sheets of grey cloud have created a fitting...

I don't know about the rest of you, but I get asked alot if I stay busy. I don't have to much trouble finding stuff to do. Thought I'd share one of my recent activities. This is my first arrangement using some music composition software. Warning... it is an old folk hymn so has a Christian...
